This is indeed a compelling argument.
However, rather than having to implement a hack in every WM that doesn't
support iconic state, I think it should be up to Wine to provide an escape
hatch for its non-standard behavior. The window regaining focus should be
enough of an indicator that it should no longer be minimized.
